Bing.com

So I heard that Microsoft released it's new search engine, "Bing.com". I must say, it's not too bad. Very smooth so far.

I like the video search, since it plays the videos from the bing page without leaving it. (Just hover your mouse over the search results... or click it to get the bigger version)

Has anyone checked it out? Do you think it will hurt google?

At first, I had my doubts, but the more I play with it, the more I like it. So we'll see!

Just wondering what you guys (and gals) think.

Even if it is a better product than Google, there's no beating Google.

1) Type in www.bing.com.
2) Enter a search term.
3) Look at results.
4) Say, "Hmm, that's nice," and continue using Google.

YUP, the simplicity and accuracy of google is what will keep it #1

Microsoft needs to realize they're trying too hard. People use Google because it's quick, simple, and versatile. There's no elaborate graphic design.

I just tried Bing with a few quick and local searches. Microsoft provided better results and information than Google. I don't know but I'll probably use both just like I have been doing. Google has also given me a lot of garbage results on some searches and doesn't handle natural language searches very well. I also feel that Google is too simplistic and only use it if I have to because I don't like digging through things to figure out if its a legitimate link or a paid advertisement.

meh.. Google will still be a fine basic search engine. Bing seems to be more of an information service.

it was SIMPLE! now is getting fat as Yahoo... but as far as Google paid me or searches, I'm good

p.s. is Bill Gates the Antichrist?

Yuck.. that hover play thing sucks..

Try playing a video, or listening to music.. then moving your mouse around the page. What a noisy nightmare.

MS fails at trying to come up with a catchy name like Google's if you ask me.

"I went home and Googled for blah"
"I went home and Bing'd for blah"

bing.com is live.com (renamed)
